Even in his teens, James Corden was rubbing shoulders with the stars.
He might be best known now for his viral sensation Carpool Karaoke, but James Corden has been in the television game for decades - and there's video to prove it.
The Late, Late Show star celebrated his 38th birthday this week and to celebrate, the BBC posted a throwback from
its archive, of a 1995 interview Corden did with Meatloaf.
Corden would have been just 17 years old at the time, but he had no trouble winning over the singer.
Corden also got a massive birthday surprise on his talk show when R&B super star Montell Jordan - who will be coming to New Zealand with TLC in November - appeared on the show.
